Chapter 119: The Watchmaker Mikhail, the person hidden by The Family
"The Penacony we are going to..."
"Was it a place to imprison criminals in the past?"
March 7th looked curiously at Welt and Himeko behind her...
Welt nodded gently: "The Penacony of the past was indeed a place where the Corporation exiled criminals..."
"In the Asdana star system where Penacony is located, there is a special substance called Memetic Substance!"
"The Corporation would let criminals go to mine these substances..."
"So many criminals were exiled there at that time..."
Stelle looked at Welt and said: "Then it should have been a prison at the beginning..."
"Why is it now a world-famous Land of Dreams?"
Welt shook his head: "What exactly happened in between, in fact, many people can no longer say clearly..."
"The only thing known is that back then, it seems a prisoner took the lead and started a riot!"
"And after that riot..."
"Penacony became independent..."
"After that, after many waves of development..."
"After The Family moved in, it truly became the Land of Dreams..."
"It became a place that almost everyone in the universe flocks to..."
"Just to go there and have a sweet dream..."
"We are also going there, we should be able to learn more things from there..."
Dan Heng looked at the live stream: "Perhaps this time the streamer will explain the story of Penacony clearly..."
"What happened in it..."
"We should know soon..."
Welt pushed his glasses: "Other things are not very clear for the time being..."
"But as far as I know, the Corporation seems to have been negotiating with The Family, wanting to take back the control of Penacony!"
"But The Family has been refusing..."
"With the Corporation's character, they won't just let it go that easily."
"Welt, what do you mean?"
Himeko looked at Welt with a slightly solemn expression...
Welt nodded and then said: "Yes..."
"Perhaps this time the Watchmaker's legacy even includes the Corporation in the invitation list..."
"The Corporation might also take advantage of this opportunity..."
"To cause trouble in Penacony or something..."
"Anyway, no matter what..."
"Let's wait until we enter Penacony to talk about what will happen in the future..."
Everyone nodded...
Then continued to look at the live stream...
Waiting for Jiang Ming to continue telling this story.
The viewers in the Honkai world are not very familiar with this history...
So they just continued listening to Bronya and Bai Feng telling it...
In the live stream...
Bai Feng explained the background of Penacony's past.
He also revealed the purpose of the Corporation exiling criminals there, which was not really about imprisoning criminals...
"Also, there is a very interesting point..."
"That is, among those criminals exiled by the Corporation, many did not commit crimes in the true sense!"
"But had some conflicts with the Corporation..."
"They were caught by the Corporation's people and sent to the Penacony prison at that time!"
Bronya raised an eyebrow: "Captain, you mean..."
"The general meaning is that the Interastral Peace Corporation might not be as peace-loving as it sounds..."
"Maybe they are using the name of peace to amass wealth on a large scale..."
"Or maybe they are using the reputation of peace to do other things..."
"Who knows?"
"Anyway, we can talk about their story slowly later..."
Bai Feng smiled slightly at the live stream...
Those viewers who knew the Interastral Peace Corporation understood what Bai Feng meant...
The reputation of the Interastral Peace Corporation in the Astral Express universe...
Is not that good!
It is more like a faction disguised in the name of peace, and plus they are followers of the Amber Lord...
It makes the people in the Corporation even more of a monolith, united from top to bottom!
But in the end, as long as it is a faction...
When doing many things, the first starting point is naturally their own interests...
This point is also understandable...
Bronya, who was sitting next to Bai Feng, also understood the hidden meaning in Bai Feng's words...
"Then Captain, let's continue talking about the story of Mikhail and Penacony..."
Bai Feng nodded and continued: "As a frontier prison, Penacony always had new prisoners being sent there..."
"Finally, one day, a prisoner named Hanunu led other prisoners to start resisting the prison's rule..."
"In Penacony's history, this period of history is called—the War of Independence!"
These four words...
Were enough for the viewers to understand who the villain was in this war...
And who was...
The true hero for everyone!
"And it was at this time that the Astral Express came to Asdana!"
"Through the train windows, Mikhail and the others saw the flames of war spreading in the Asdana frontier prison..."
"After understanding the whole process of the matter, the Nameless and many factions participated in the war of the Asdana people together!"
"With the help of a group of companions and visitors from outside the sky, Hanunu quelled the war!"
"And after the prison was liberated, Hanunu gave this frontier prison a brand new name—Penacony!"
"When the Astral Express was about to leave, the Nameless Mikhail, Tieernan, and Lazarina decided to stay and help Hanunu."
"Help him build Penacony together, and make this place the Land of Dreams for everyone!"
"This was everyone's ideal!"
"The navigator at the time agreed with Mikhail's choice and gave the hat of the previous navigator, Falken, to his best student, Mikhail!"
"And in Penacony, the Nameless Mikhail had a brand new name—The Watchmaker!!!"
"What!?"
Hearing this name, Himeko and Welt on the Astral Express were instantly surprised!
Not just the two of them, even the three of March 7th were somewhat surprised...
"The Watchmaker!?"
"Isn't he the person who sent us the invitation letter?"
"So the Watchmaker is our predecessor Mikhail?"
March 7th looked at Himeko and Welt somewhat excitedly...
Himeko nodded at this time: "What the streamer said should be correct..."
"This also proves one thing from another aspect..."
Stelle looked at Himeko curiously: "Is there a problem with that invitation letter?"
Himeko looked at Stelle: "You are very smart, you guessed it..."
"As you thought, there is a problem with that invitation letter..."
"After getting the invitation letter, I used the Nameless's way to decipher some hidden codes on it!"
"But I suspected the identity of this Watchmaker. Now it seems the identity can be confirmed..."
Dan Heng looked at Himeko and asked suspiciously: "So this invitation letter might not be an invitation letter..."
"But a distress letter from Mikhail?"
Welt analyzed: "That is the only possibility..."
"After all, if Mikhail was still in Penacony without any problems..."
"He wouldn't need to use this method to communicate with us Nameless..."
"Using this method to communicate with us..."
"Means that Mikhail has completely lost the ability to maintain real contact with the outside world!"
"So he could only send the distress information in this way..."
